To all committers! cvs write access to crater has been disabled and
ssh has been changed from cvs to git operations.
You need to build and install the devel/scmgit package from pkgsrc.
You can then clone the repo using the following sequence of commands.
If you have made local changes to the source tree you have to save them
before doing this or they will be lost.
SAVE ANY LOCAL CHANGES YOU HAVE MADE BEFORE DOING THIS! This example
shows setting up a completely fresh repo.
rm -rf src
git clone -o crater -n \
ssh://crater.dragonflybsd.org/repository/git/dragonfly.git src
cd src
git branch rel2_0 crater/DragonFly_RELEASE_2_0
You now have two local branches available. 'master' tracks the
main development trunk and 'rel2_0' tracks the 2.0 release
(for example). If you checkout a branch out it becomes your working
branch:
git checkout master
You can then make changes and commit them to your local branch.
edit files ... blah blah blah
git commit -a
However, the information will NOT yet be on crater. To do that you
have to push your work to crater.
git push crater
Please note that the local copy of the repo is IN your src/ directory,
in the "src/.git" directory. If you rm -rf src you are also destroying
the local copy of your repo.
